Around 6:30, the big pot of stew was ready.

An Qingbai found his father.

"Dad, dinner is ready. Tell everyone to stop for a moment and eat first!"

Today we're having a big pot of stew, two cornbread buns per person, and a big bowl of stew per person.

"Okay, let's eat first!"

An Danxiao shouted it out directly.

"It's time to eat. Take your own bowl and go get your food. Two steamed buns per person."

Shi Meiling was in charge of serving the large pot of food, filling everyone's plate to the brim, afraid that the people who came to work wouldn't have enough to eat.

An Leping, holding a bowl, approached An Tanxiao with a smile.

"Tan Xiao, this meal is really good! My third nephew has really made something of himself; he cooks with great flair!"

"It's really good. I guess the third brother has cooked a lot of meals at Zhimeng's place!"

This is so much better than before! Before, the third brother's cooking was always either burnt or too watery. Having a girlfriend really makes a difference!

"Well, you're in for a treat. I bet my third nephew and Zhuang Zhiqing will both amount to a lot in the future!"

An Tanxiao laughed.

"Hehe, then I'll take your kind words. Let's eat!"

Everyone was well-fed and worked with great enthusiasm.

Shi Meiling sat on a bench eating, with Qian Yunshuang, Zhuang Zhimeng, and Jiang Yanxia sitting next to her in a row.

"Zhimeng, the stew that Lao San and Mengmeng cooked is really delicious! I never expected that they could cook so well!"

"It's true, Mother is right. I never expected my third brother and his family to cook so well!"

Zhuang Zhimeng smiled.

"Maybe they cook a lot, because the food is getting better and better!"

Jiang Yanxia also spoke up.

"Hehe, Meng Ge'er is quite talented. He's been cooking better than me ever since he learned to cook!"

I was completely baffled. There was nothing I could do but make him cook more often!

Shi Meiling laughed.

"Hehe, isn't this a good idea? Mengmeng is in charge of cooking and Yanxia is in charge of eating. I think it's quite suitable!"

"Hehe, Aunt Meiling thinks so too, right? I think it's quite suitable too!"

Zhuang Zhimeng patted Xiazi.

"Hey, Meng-ge'er's here. Why don't you tell him it's a good match?"

Jiang Yanxia smiled at Meng Ge'er but didn't say anything, deliberately lowering her head to continue eating.

Su Mengmeng walked over with a bowl in her hand and noticed that all of them were looking at him.

He touched his face with one hand.

"What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?"

The four of them burst out laughing instantly.

"Ha ha!"

Su Mengmeng…

Su Mengmeng smiled and looked at Jiang Yanxia.

"Hey Xiazi, did you say something to me? Why are you all laughing like that?"

Jiang Yanxia glared at him.

What can I say to you? I'm praising you! I'm praising you as a flower, okay?

Su Mengmeng waved her hand.

"Don't say that, don't say that, it's so embarrassing! It's fine as long as you know it yourself, what will people think if you say it out loud?"

Jiang Yanxia almost choked herself to death with a mouthful of spit.

"Cough, cough! You..."

Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and patted Xiazi's back.

"Haha, alright, you two, hurry up and eat, we still have things to do after you finish eating!"

Su Mengmeng scratched her head.

"Boss, what are you busy with? I didn't hear Brother An mention it."

Zhuang Zhimeng pointed to the bowl with her chopsticks.

"Don't you need to wash the dishes? Don't you need to scrub the pots? You'll keep using them tomorrow, forever?"

An Qingbai walked over at this moment and happened to hear what Zhizhi said, and immediately responded.

"Wash your clothes right after you eat!"

Zhuang Zhimeng greeted Qingbai.

"Brother Qingbai, you can sit here and eat, I've already finished!"

"good!"

Jiang Yanxia also stood up.

"Meng-ge, don't squat anymore, sit down, I've finished eating!"

"Alright!"

Shi Meiling asked Qian Yunshuang.

"Yun Shuang, where's Yangyang? Where did he go?"

Qian Yunshuang pointed towards An Qinghua's side.

"Yangyang went to see his dad and his second uncle. He said he wanted to have dinner with them, otherwise he would be so pitiful with no one to keep him company!"

"Hehe, Yangyang is really a clever little guy!"

The others laughed as they listened to the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Those who had finished eating continued working.

Before finishing work, Zhuang Zhimeng specially went back and brought the watermelons over.

"Brother Qingbai, cut the watermelon in half to make sure everyone gets a piece. It's time to test your skills!"

"No problem, I can do it!"

An Qingbai held the knife up to his finger for a moment, then began to cut.

The watermelon was cut to the perfect size, enough for one person, including Yangyang's, and everyone got a slice.

Zhuang Zhimeng patted him on the shoulder.

"Brother Qingbai, that's really impressive! You even cut them all to the same size!"

"Hehe, it's alright, this is basic! I can even slice them into slices of the same thickness!"

"Hmm, not bad, not bad! Maybe I'll let you film it sometime?"

"Of course, no problem!"

An Tanxiao walked over when he saw the watermelon.

"Third brother, you even bought a watermelon?"

"Yes, Dad, tell them all to come and eat watermelon, one slice for each person. I cut it quite big!"

"Okay!"

An Tanxiao then shouted.

"That's it for today. Everyone go and have a slice of watermelon before you leave. Everyone gets one slice, so no one should fight or grab!"

The workers were very happy to hear that there were watermelons available.

Each person took a piece; some ate it on the spot, while others, reluctant to eat it, took it home. No one said anything, since each person only had one piece, and it was up to them whether to eat it themselves or give it to their family.
